You can see 3 LH-B744. I guess that's because the satelite took 3 pictures successively. What do you think?

...and if you look at London Heathrow you'll see four Airbus A320s on runway 09L...

That is pretty cool. I'd say it was the speed the satellite was taking shots! Otherwise ATC would be ordering valium by the container load ;D ;D ;D
